ABOUT THE EVENING OF HOPE
Join us on Thursday, October 29 when the Dallas Holocaust and Human Rights Museum pays tribute to Holocaust survivors – our inspirational beacons of hope for humanity. To have survived the brutal forces of the Nazis and to bear witness to those events is a victory over unspeakable evil.
At this beloved annual dinner, the Museum bestows the Hope for Humanity award to an outstanding individual who demonstrates a dedication to the improvement of society.

Sponsorships start at $6,000 for a table of 10, with benefits including complimentary parking, cocktails, and reserved dinner seating. View sponsorship levels and associated benefits.

On November 18, more than 1,300 attended the sold-out Hope for Humanity dinner to help us honor our Holocaust survivors and pay tribute to DR. MICHAEL BERENBAUM as the Museum's 2025 Hope for Humanity Honoree. A leading voice in Holocaust education, Michael's lifetime work in this field has helped ensure that the world does not forget the horrors of the past or the resilience of its survivors.
We extend our deepest gratitude to Honorary Chairs Ann and Nate Levine, and Event Co-Chairs Barbi and Scott Cohen, and Catherine and Sam L. Susser for making the evening possible. Alongside the Honorary Committee and Host Committee, their amazing efforts and the generosity of so many have made this year's fundraiser one of the most financially successful efforts yet - raising more than $1.9 million!
